Some Sennheisers are nice but the thing that disturbs me with them is that every model in their range sounds totally different in terms of sound character.

In article <c75db8$iiii3$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] (Damien Evans) wrote: > but the thing that disturbs me with them is that every model in > their range sounds totally different in terms of sound > character. I think that's the nature of headphones, and all speaker technology in general. It's often like trying to decide which food you like best... picking one "flavour" of sound over another depends upon your mood, the circumstances, and -- of course -- your budget. There's no such thing as best, but there is definitely such as thing as too cheap :-) The 580 set are very impressive, though I also like the Beyer DT range for quality & comfort (obvious given they're widespread professional use). My Bose noise cancelling set also sound excellent (definitely a different "flavour" to the Sennheisers though), but due to their compact & isolating nature, are less comfortable to wear than the weighty, but low pressure 580s. The Sennheiser radio headphones (HDR 65 circumaural in my case) are noticeably poorer quality, but you're paying for the freedom rather than pure quality. And that freedom is great... except when you forget which set you're wearing and start breaking leads, which can get expensive very quickly with decent headphones! As with so many things in life, chasing the "perfect" all round headphone can get expensive, and it's easy to end up with a collection that suit different circumstances but rarely get used because it's frequently easier to just reach for whatever's closest! Still, everyone should have a hobby ;-) Andrew McP

As you get older the hearing goes down hill fast. I had exceptional hearing when I was younger and spent thousands on speakers. But after all those years of rock concerts and loud music well...........:-) I use the Zalmans for gaming not listening to music and in that regard they give me a great bang for the buck. Was looking at your Sennheisers the other day but decided I so rarely use headphones for music that I didn't need them.

The problem with the reviews I read were the audiophiles trying them didn't seem like "gamers" that need surround sound in a FPS. I agree they aren't the best for music, far from it but I didn't buy them for that purpose. Again using a product for what it was designed for seems more appropriate. But I digress. :-)

I understand where you are coming from. I have a house and I'm running out of room with antiquated computer parts and accessories. Twenty five years of this "hobby" makes me wonder at times if it is worth it.

There's so much wonderful (in terms of pleasure if not always healthy nutrition) food out there wherever you look, and the immediate pleasure we get from it is very addictive. I'm not immune, I just prefer to indulge in occasional chocolate chip cookies (ok whole packets of ;-) instead of burgers & fries and takeaways. If I do eat unhealthily it's at home where I at least have to make the effort to prepare it. Of course if I had kids I'm sure I'd be dragged down McDonalds etc by the marketing hype just like every other browbeaten parent who's sworn never to take their kids anywhere near the darned places :-) Andrew McP

Now you sure that's not more of a contribution to your lack of any additional pounds than your not eating fast foods? :) I eat what I want, when I want, but ensure I don't gain any extra pounds by regular exercise. -- Peter Ives (AKA Pete Ivington) Remove ALL_STRESS before replying via email If you know what's good for you, don't listen to me :) GPLRank Joystick -50.63 Wheel -25.01

Every year I have a lean month or so to pull my weight back into line. The biggest single thing we do to burn energy is keep our body heated. Exercise is just the icing on the cake to keep us fit, not a cure for the multiple temptations of highly processed, very high calorie foods. It's like, a holistic thing, man ;-) Andrew McP
